Design help replacing 5'X6' living room windows
Comments (4)Are you dividing the window into two sections 3' x 5'? Think about splitting it into three sections and then the screens wouldn't be as large. Some companies (I know Marvin does) have the retractable screen that is horizontal so it doesn't infringe into the daylight opening as the top down screens do....See MoreNeed help designing large living room.
Comments (1)This is a beautiful, charming home. If you start in the living room, you would first decide what would be the focal point -- which is obviously the fireplace. So your seating would center around it. The opposite side of the room could be used for additional seating. Leave the arch as is. It is integral to the architecture of the house. Remove the wallpaper -- and I would absolutely paint both rooms the same. You have a lot of ideas and I would suggest you first do electrical update, install new windows. I would also recommend that if you replace one window, you do them all the same. Otherwise, your new home will look disjointed and it will effect the value of your property. Sometimes one can be overwhelmed thinking everything has to be done now. Take your time and enjoy your beautiful new home....See MoreI need help with furniture placement in a large living room.
Comments (10)Wow! Those windows going out to the porch are beautiful. What a great view! I think you should have two separate sitting areas because the smaller chairs don’t work with the larger chair. I love how the larger chair looks with your sofa and pillows...just lovely! Is there room to remove the end table on the right and slide the rug, sofa, and big chair down a couple of feet? And keep the big chair angled towards sofa like in the first photo...away from the chase part. Then I would leave the two smaller chairs under the opening but pull them out a bit so that sitting area stands in it’s on. Looking forward to seeing photos of what you do especially when the bigger rug gets in! I like the black idea too....See MoreBest window treatments for a large living room window on busy street?
Comments (3)IMO the darker drape does not work with the sofa. As for snarkey I will say that to have blinds to keep out the sun is the worst choice I like to be able to see out of my windows so I choose solar shades to control light and heat they also give you day time privacy and then I add drapes for nightime privacy . As for what to se for drapes I would need to see the whole space and no matter what you choose make sure they are the proper length...See Moreivy333dale
